Brass
Microscope
This brass microscope by "R. & J. Beck" has its' fitted mahogany case and two eyepieces and four objectives.
There are no cracks or chips to the brass that I can find and the microscope has retained much of its' original lacquering, however, there are the usual scuffs, marks and scratches, mainly to the stage, that you expect from a well used item of this age.
The drawertube mechanism moves up and downs smoothly and the fine focus wheel appears to be working.
The base is marked "R. & J. Beck, London & Philadelphia, 10737".
The objective turret turns as it should and the double sided mirror has no chips or cracks, however, there is a little loss of silvering to one side.
Two of the objectives have their cans and are marked "R & J Beck". One of the objectives is marked "R & J Beck", the others are unmarked. There is also a larger objective with a working diaphragm, this is marked "R & J Beck".
The microscope measures approximately, 27 cm (10 1/2 inches) tall.
The microscope has its' fitted mahagony case, this does have a split to the back.We take great care to describe our items clearly and honestly as possible, including any faults or flaws that we may see.
